How to Change Skins in Guild Wars
For their four-year anniversary in April 2008, NCSoft unveiled ways to change the way your Guild War character looks, even after you've gone through the original character creation process. Previously, there there had been no way to do this. Along with changing your hair, hair style, body structure and even gender, you can change the color of your character's skin. You can recreate your character, becoming the one you've always wanted to be, by purchasing one of two "makeover packs" from the NCSoft Store.

Scroll down the page until you see options for a "Makeover Pack" and "Extreme Makeover." Both packs cost the same amount, $9.99. The "Makeover Pack" allows you to customize your character's hair style, hair color, face, skin color and body, and gives you five "Makeover Credits" to use on any character on your account. The "Extreme Makeover" gives you all the options as the regular "Makeover Pack" except you can also change your character's gender. Remember, it is only good for one use.
